Kate Gosselin blogs for Coupon Cabin

Kate Gosselin may be the web's newest coupon guru, but that doesn't mean the former reality star has the chops to survive Black Friday!

Kate Gosselin, newly crowned coupon queen, is looking to save a few bucks while shopping for her eight children now that TLC has canceled Kate Plus 8. However, that doesn't mean she's willing to go to any lengths when it comes to bargain hunting.

The 36-year-old, who recently started blogging for CouponCabin in her first post-television gig, posted about her shopping plans Tuesday. Even though twin daughters Maddie and Cara are now 11 and the sextuplets are 7, this is one shopper you'll find comfortably sitting at home come Black Friday.

Once Thanksgiving is all over, it truly hits me: The holiday season is upon me and this mom of eight kids had better get shopping… and fast! In the past, I have been known to shop year-round, which I will still do if something special for someone on my list catches my eye. I've watched and noticed, though, that the deals on Black Friday, whether you are using printable coupons from CouponCabin or shopping online with coupon codes, the deals truly are best online around the holidays.

I discovered this wonderful world of internet shopping way back when I was stranded at home with eight kids under the age of four years old. Even now, that sounds nearly impossible. Let's be clear though: Even though my kids may be more mobile now, I am still NOT known to fight the Black Friday crowds in the stores as soon as my last bite of turkey is swallowed. There are those who are willing to risk indigestion and sleep deprivation in order to catch a great bargain, but I am not one of them.

Sounds like someone's status as a true bargain hunter is debatable!

Will you be out shopping on Black Friday, or following Kate Gosselin's advice to stay home?
